Unanswered Prayers?
God is our father. He treats us like His own children. Therefore, we need to behave with him like a good child and win His favour. Only then will He give an answer to our prayer. We should convince Him that we put the gifts we receive to good use. This is the same as… Continue reading

God of Silence
God loves silence in our everyday activities. This was revealed by Jesus to St Faustina wherein she was apprised of a fellow person who did not live a life in silence; Jesus was displeased with the person. Moreover, many congregations have a strict rule of silence. The best known for this is the Carthusian order… Continue reading

God’s Intellect
Jesus was known to possess great intellect. He could stupefy even the most learned person of His time. This was true in a number of cases: may it be the question regarding marriage in Heaven(Matthew 22:28-33) or the greatest commandment(Matthew 22:35-40) or paying taxes(Matthew 22:15-22). Many of His Saints possessed great intellectual abilities too. St… Continue reading

Living Saints
He is God of the Living and not of the dead. For to Him all are alive(Luke 20:38). He reveals His plan to His servants well before bringing it to completion(Amos 3:7). All the Saints knew what they were going to be well before their death. Many were called as Living Saints long before their… Continue reading

Serving God
Those who serve God lack no good thing. Contrary to the situation in this world, even majestic young lions suffer and hunger(Psalm 34:10). More so, those who serve and proclaim the gospel are asked to carry nothing with them on the journey to these places- not even money with an extra pair of clothes(Luke 9:3).… Continue reading

God and Forgiveness
Jesus asks us to forgive anyone who has wronged us. We should not carry grudges against one another. He, Himself, set us an example by forgiving those who insulted and put Him on the Cross(Luke 23:24). The Saints too exhibited this behaviour. One of them is St Maria Goretti who forgave her killer. When on… Continue reading

Mother Mary, the Ark
Mother Mary is the Ark of the Covenant. The old Ark was never found. It was carried all along the Israelites’ journeys and many battles. The same way Mother Mary leads us and God protects us through her. She is chosen for this blessing. All the Saints were guided by her voice when they were… Continue reading

God’s Providence
God can do the impossible in his faithful’s lives. He knows each and everyone’s heart and supplies their needs from His Providence(Philippians 4:19). All that a person has to do is to trust in Him as a father and give themselves to Him totally. The miracles in all His Saints’ life are too many to… Continue reading

Suffering for God
Not all who are struck with disaster are sinners(Luke 13:4). God allows suffering in the lives of his faithful too. He prunes them so that they produce more fruit(John 15:1,2). Suffering is for everyone and in the plan of God (Romans 5:3-5). Jesus suffered too. For Him it was a form of baptism. Job proved… Continue reading
